correct me if i'm wrong but..

9 Call of Duty: Black Ops PS3 18 14,997 109,756
10 Gran Turismo 5 PS3 17 10,092 106,390

so gran turismo 5 is just a smidge under CoD: black ops.  with the one week head start it is behind by around 20 k or basically 85%.  on the ps3 MW2 sold around 1.6M (sales not preorders) in the americas week one.  okay, maybe it's a leap of faith but 85% of 1.6M is 1.36M so a GT opening of around a million in the americas really isn't that far fetched.  europe and japan will together do at least the same as the americas so a opening week in the ballpark of 2 maybe 3 million is not out of the question. 

sure, halo will do better but not a bad opening for GT.

As I said earlier I have no doubt it will sell I just do not think it will be stellar actually MW2 on the PS3 current ltd sales sounds about what I think GT5 would do. I just wonder if the demographic that once supported the GT franchise still exists to the same extent.

well if the current LTD of MW2 is what your are expecting then I will just agree to disagree with what stellar means is 8.15M units as pretty stellar to me.
